A report last week showed that almost half of all men failed to take up their offering of two weeks paternity leave(陪产假). The Equality and Human Rights Commission,【C1】______carried out the research, found that most men who failed to take the【C2】______did so because they felt unable to afford it.
The research was not【C3】______to paternity leave. It also found that two out of five men were afraid of asking for flexible working【C4】______it harm their careers by making them appear uncommitted. The same number【C5】______to feeling that they spent too little time with their children.
【C6】______there is something going on【C7】______British culture-and one thing driving our culture is the legal framework in which【C8】______operates.【C9】______to the two-week paternity leave for men, women have a one-year offering. The【C10】______offerings are a signal that in this society men belong in the office【C11】______women should take the lead at home.
A big change【C12】______the horizon is the one that will【C13】______the way for men to take the second six months of their partner’s leave【C14】______the woman returns to work. It is a welcome change. But it still starts with the same【C15】______premise(前提)because the leave is offered to the woman who can then choose to【C16】______it on. To launch a real【C17】______in culture, it would be better to offer it to them both and let them decide.【C18】______when men do shake off the cultural chain that【C19】______them to the office--and their breadwinner【C20】______--they can be wonderful full-time fathers.
【C17】
选项
A、transfer
B、difference
C、shift
D、alteration
答案
C
解析
考查近义名词的辨析。上文提到a big change,根据文意此处要填一个表示“改变”的词,transfer。(迁移;移动;换车),difference(不同),意思均不合,可首先排除;而alteration是侧重指本质不变的、小的“更改;变化”shift则偏向“变换”这种较大程度的改变,而文中牵涉到男女在家庭角色中的变换(这也是英国文化的变化),所以shift符合文意。
